It's more like a garbage man wanting to be called garbage man rather than city employee 3rd class.
The SJWNAV is changing it to city employee 3rd class

Think it's not a big deal? the man who came up with this has a degree from Johns Hopkins and Harvard, and he's been using millions of tax dollars for the last three months to come up with it.
For some reason the ones who were appointed to run the entire navy put a lot of thought into this. Makes one wonder why tbh.
Why was it a big deal to begin with
Let's not start pretending that wasting money is a new thing in our military

This SECNAV is a total frickhead. Rates are your identity and they're just going to wipe that away because he feels like doing it. Talk about a complete disconnect from the enlisted navy.

Your rating was making some SJW on your ship upset and tearful? Sad.
A nation of pussies is where we are headed.
My wittle feelings.

No, that's exactly what he said. Instead of getting the new title of city employee 3rd class, you'd rather they keep on calling you garbage man.

There is a reason this Administration is doing this. Seems like some of you are just starting to pay attention. Our enemies are loving this. Just another way they are turning our men into weaklings. This assures America can no longer win another war on the scale of WW1 or WW2. This is an invasion from within. Their patience has paid off.
I've been paying attention since day 1, but I don't think you are correct. He is just a far left idealogue who thinks he knows more than everybody else. Yes, that still makes him dangerous even though he's not trying to be.

First it was making rates gender neutral, now this. I'm glad I'm retiring in '18.

All in the name of pushing overpopulated rates into other A Schools that are understaffed. Your multiple NOS certs will mean the Navy can have you doing multiple jobs during your enlisted career which sounds nice until you learn that you might be forced into a NOS you don't really want.
I agree with the seaman/fireman/Airman thing...it was kind of hokey but the elimination of rates is a HORRID thing to do.

The Navy deep-sixed all of its 91 enlisted ratings titles Thursday, marking the beginning of an overhaul of the rigid career structure that has existed since the Continental Navy in a radical shift sure to reverberate through the fleet and the veterans community beyond.

Well this sucks. Now I'm actually going to have to learn the Navy rank structure
I've already started calling our docs "corpspeople".

Our ship got all pissed when the COB told us we could no longer refer to the Supply Officer as "Chop" which was a tradition for our sub (it might be for other commands as well)
I can only imagine how these changes are going over.
WTF Navy!!!
First you eliminate the greatest working uniform in the military (dungarees) and now you kill off rates???
